Bully Breed Lover & Advocate

Pet care experience

*CURRENTLY ONLY TAKING WALKS IN THE NORTHSIDE* Due to personal circumstances I will only be walking dogs in the War Streets, Manchester, and Deutschtown for the time being. I’m a dog person through and through! I love dogs of all sizes and breeds, but I have a special place in my heart for the big, blocky headed bully breeds. I have two bully breed dogs that I love dearly and I have plenty of experience walking them! One of my dogs is older and requires daily medication, so I have experience with special needs dogs as well. I also grew up with my parents owning Rottweilers that were my best buddies as a kid! I love walking dogs as a way to help others who need a little extra help with the day-to-day tasks, but I also love it for the exercise I get. I recently recovered from a medical issue so being active and healthy is very important to me. And I’d love to take your dog on a walk with me!!

Oreo had a great walk with her. Rachel arrived on time, was great getting familiar with him and took great care of him.

Rachel has been great with our large dog! Our dog is shy around strangers and Rachel won her over. My dog looks forward to her regular walks with Rachel!

My dog, who is very neurotic and very picky about who she likes, warmed up to Rachel right away! We are all much happier now that Jaina is able to get out for a walk during the day while we're at work. Rachel has done a great job and we're so happy we found her!

Safety, trust & environment

I always let the dog’s mood lead my interactions. When entering a client’s home, I’m aware of the dog’s space and let them come to me at their own pace.

Information Rachel H. would like to know about your pet

I would like to know if your dog has any history of aggression/anxiety/nervousness and what the triggers may be/are. I can use this both for my safety and your pets to ensure their encounters with me are positive.

A typical day

I treat all dogs as if they were my own and make sure they are happy and taken care of in every way possible. A dog staying at my home can expect all of the snuggles and scritches while lounging around on the couch. My dogs have a plethora of interesting toys that they don’t mind sharing with 4 legged friends, but feel free to send your dog’s favorite toy(s) along with them! When the weather is decent, your dog can enjoy either a solo or partner walk around the neighborhood with one of my dogs. I live very close to Frick Park where they can hang out in the grass and enjoy some fresh air.
